The Chicago Tribune as well as the Bloomington Pantagraph yesterday reported that Federal officials have issued stop-work orders on "wind farms" all over the country. Developers said that at least 15 wind farm proposals in the Midwest have been shut down by the Federal Aviation Administration since the start of the year, including the project near Saybrook, Illinois.
The Saybrook site is one of several proposed for Central Illinois, including those near Benson, Delavan, Hudson, and northern Livingston County. Wind farms in LaSalle and Bureau counties already are operational.
This supposedly has something to do with military radar interference on the part of the turbines and Homeland Security as well as the FAA seem involved.
Stay tuned.
